Project description:Frequent discrepancies between preclinical and clinical results of anti-cancer agents demand a reliable translational platform that can precisely recapitulate the biology of human cancers. Another critical unmet need is the ability to predict therapeutic responses for individual patients. Toward this goal, we have established a library of orthotopic glioblastoma (GBM) xenograft models using surgical samples of GBM patients. These patient-specific GBM xenograft tumors recapitulate histopathological properties and maintain genomic characteristics of parental GBMs in situ. Furthermore, in vivo irradiation, chemotherapy, and targeted therapy of these xenograft tumors mimic the treatment response of parental GBMs. We also found that establishment of orthotopic xenograft models portends poor prognosis of GBM patients and identified the gene signatures and pathways signatures associated with the clinical aggressiveness of GBMs. Together, the patient-specific orthotopic GBM xenograft library represent the preclinically and clinically valuable “patient tumor’s phenocopy” that represents molecular and functional heterogeneity of GBMs. aCGH experiments were performed for a human glioblastoma tissue (sample ID: PC-NS08-559) and the matching xenograft tumor tissue using the Agilent Human Whole Genome CGH 244K microarray according to manufacturer's protocol (2-color).

Project description:This project describes the establishment and validation of a murine orthotopic xenograft model using fresh human tumor samples that recapitulates the critical components of human pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The authors discuss the proven and theoretical advantages of the model as well as future translational implications. Background: Relevant preclinical models that recapitulate the key features of human pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are needed in order to provide biologically tractable models to probe disease progression and therapeutic responses and ultimately improve patient outcomes for this disease. Here, we describe the establishment and clinical, pathological, molecular and genetic validation of a murine, orthotopic xenograft model of PDAC. Methods: Human PDACs were resected and orthotopically implanted and propagated in immunocompromised mice. Patient survival was correlated with xenograft growth and metastatic rate in mice. Human and mouse tumor pathology were compared. Tumors were analyzed for genetic mutations, gene expression, receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activation, and cytokine expression. Results: Fifteen human PDACs were propagated orthotopically in mice. Xenografts developed peritoneal and liver metastases. Time to growth and metastatic efficiency in mice each correlated with patient survival. Tumor architecture, nuclear grade and stromal content were similar in patient and xenografted tumors. Propagated tumors closely exhibited the genetic and molecular features known to characterize pancreatic cancer (e.g. high rate of KRAS, p53, SMAD4 mutation and EGFR activation). The correlation coefficient of gene expression between patient tumors and xenografts propagated through multiple generations was 93 to 99%. Analysis of gene expression demonstrated distinct differences between xenografts from fresh patient tumors versus commercially available PDAC cell lines. Conclusions: Our orthotopic xenograft model derived from fresh human PDACs closely recapitulates the clinical, pathologic, genetic and molecular aspects of human disease. This model has resulted in the identification of rational therapeutic strategies to be tested in clinical trials and will permit additional therapeutic approaches and identification of biomarkers of response to therapy. 47 Samples in total were generated for normal pancreatic tissue in patients, pancreatic tumors in patients, pancreatic tumors propagated in a mouse xenograft model, and pancreatic cancer cell lines in vitro. Clustering analysis was performed to evaluate the differences between patient tumors, xenograft tumors, established cancer cell lines, and cell lines derived from xenografts.

Project description:Xenograft models remain a cornerstone technology in the development of anti-cancer agents. The ability of immunocompromised rodents to support the growth of human tumors provides an invaluable transition between in vitro testing and clinical trials. Therefore, approaches to improve model selection are required. In this study, cDNA microarray data was generated for a collection of xenograft models at in vivo passages 1, 4 and 10 (P1, P4 and P10) along with originating cell lines (P0). These data can be mined to determine transcript expression 1) relative to other models 2) with successive in vivo passage and 3) during the in vitro (P0) to in vivo (P1) transition. For originating cell lines (P0) and xenograft fragments at P1, P4 and P10, RNA was isolated, cDNA transcribed and hybridized to Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. P0 samples have 2-3 replicates, whereas P1, P4 and P10 samples have 5 replicates. This dataset comprises a total of 823 array files.

Project description:Conventional high-grade osteosarcoma is a primary malignant bone tumor, which is most prevalent in adolescence. Survival rates of osteosarcoma patients have not improved significantly in the last 25 years. Aiming to increase this survival rate, a variety of model systems are used to study osteosarcomagenesis and to test new therapeutic agents. Such model systems are typically generated from an osteosarcoma primary tumor, but undergo many changes due to culturing or interactions with a different host species, which may result into differences in gene expression between primary tumor cells, and tumor cells from the model system. We aimed to investigate whether gene expression profiles of osteosarcoma cell lines and xenografts are still comparable to those of the primary tumor. Osteosarcoma can be subdivided into several histological subtypes, of which osteoblastic, chondroblastic, and fibroblastic osteosarcoma are the most frequent ones. Using nearest shrunken centroids classification, we have generated an expression profile that can predict these histological subtypes in both osteosarcoma biopsies (n=66), as well as in two osteosarcoma model systems, i.e. osteosarcoma cell lines (n=13) and xenografts (n=18). Based on the preservation of mRNA expression profiles that are characteristic for the histological subtype we propose that these model systems are representative to the primary tumor from which they are derived. Genome-wide expression profiling was performed on pre-treatment diagnostic biopsies of 76 resectable high-grade osteosarcoma patients from the EuroBoNet consortium (www.eurobonet.eu). Samples with a main histological subtype (n=66) were selected for subsequent subtype analyses. Out of the EuroBoNeT panel of 19 cell lines, 13 cell lines were recorded to belong to a main histological subtype. This set of 13 cell lines contained 4 cell lines derived from fibroblastic, and 9 cell lines derived from osteoblastic osteosarcomas. The 13 osteosarcoma cell lines IOR/MOS, IOR/OS10, IOR/OS14, IOR/OS15, IOR/OS18, IOR/OS9, IOR/SARG, KPD, MG-63, MHM, OHS, OSA, and ZK-58 were maintained in RPMI 1640 (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal calf serum and 1% Penicillin/Streptomycin (Invitrogen) as previously described (PMID: 19787792). The osteosarcoma xenograft model is described in Kresse et al. (PMID: 21713766) In short, human tumors were implanted directly from patient samples and successively passaged subcutaneously in nude mice. Eighteen different xenografts were used, of which 3 were derived from chondroblastic, and 15 from osteoblastic osteosarcomas. Osteosarcoma and xenograft tissue was handled as previously described in Buddingh, Kuijjer et al. (PMID: 21372215) Osteosarcoma cell lines were prepared as in Ottaviano et al. (PMID: 19787792) RNA isolation, synthesis of cDNA, cRNA amplification, and hybridization of cRNA onto the Illumina Human-6 v2.0 Expression BeadChips were performed as described in Buddingh, Kuijjer, et al. (PMID: 21372215) Microarray data processing and quality control were performed using the statistical language R as described in Buddingh, Kuijjer, et al. (PMID: 21372215) We performed a factorial LIMMA analysis comparing 50 osteoblastic, 9 chondroblastic, and 7 fibroblastic osteosarcomas pre-chemotherapy biopsies. Probes with Benjamini and Hochberg False discovery rate-adjusted P-values < 0.05 were considered to be significantly differentially expressed. The gene expression profile was generated on the dataset of biopsies using Bioconductor package PAMR. Internal cross-validation was performed 50 times. A threshold was selected where the error rate of the prediction profile was minimal. The minimum error rate was representative of 50 independent simulations. In order to minimize optimization bias, we validated the profile on an independent dataset of osteosarcoma biopsies (n=5), containing 1 chondroblastic osteosarcoma and 4 osteoblastic osteosarcomas. We subsequently applied the validated prediction profile to two independent datasets, the first consisting of gene expression data of osteosarcoma cell lines, the second of xenografts. Expression of the probes that composed the prediction profile was verified using a factorial LIMMA analysis, comparing chondroblastic, fibroblastic, and osteoblastic osteosarcoma biopsy samples.

Project description:Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is a pleiotropic cytokine that plays a major role in responding to injury or infection as well as immune response, inflammation, and hematopoiesis. High levels of circulating IL-6 are observed in many tumor types and are associated with poor outcomes. We show that knockdown of IL-6 or IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) inhibits IL-6 signaling and cell viability. In contrast, over-expression of IL-6 enhances tumor growth in vitro and in vivo, thereby supporting the role of IL-6 in tumorigenesis. We developed a human monoclonal antibody against human IL-6 (MEDI5117) that bears Fc mutations (YTE) to extend its half-life. We tested this antibody in several cancer cell lines that secrete high levels of IL-6, soluble IL-6R, and express gp130. High constitutive pSTAT3 (phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3) activation is seen in several of these cell lines, suggesting autocrine growth stimulation by IL-6. Treating these cell lines with MEDI5117 effectively blocked phosphorylation of STAT3 and inhibited IL-6-induced cell proliferation. In vivo, MEDI5117 suppressed the growth of multiple cancer xenograft models and specifically modulated IL-6 signaling and downstream gene expression. Combining MEDI5117 with chemotherapy or gefitinib demonstrated significantly enhanced anti-tumor activities in vivo. Taken together, our data suggest that IL-6 signaling contributes to tumor growth, thereby supporting the development of MEDI5117 as a therapy to treat solid tumors. Xenograft tumors from DU145, KPL4, and NCI-H1650 were treated with 30 mg/kg of MEDI5117 or IgG isotype control IgG1 for a total of two doses. Differentially expressed genes were identified and canonical pathway enrichment analysis was performed
